Garlic Chili Blue Star Crab Dip

Directions

In a large pan over medium heat, add the butter, olive oil, and garlic. Cook for 1 minute, and then add the onion and salt. Sauté until the onions are translucent, about 7 minutes. Remove from the heat and set aside.

In a large bowl, add the crab meat, sour cream, buttermilk, sambal, and Old Bay. Mix to combine. Add the warm onion mixture and stir until fully incorporated.

Transfer half of the mixture to a food processor and puree. Transfer the puree back to the bowl with the unprocessed half of the mixture and fold in the scallions, and lime zest until fully incorporated.

Season with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with your favorite type of chips.
